I used the Stampin’ Up! Lots of Joy stamp set to complete this snappy Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge (PPA269) for you today.
Discover what the rest of the PPA resident artists have designed using this sketch and play along here.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- What could be sweeter than the perfect star button on top of the tree? It’s from Stampin’ Up! Home for Christmas Designer Buttons. A glue dot keeps it in place.
- The sentiment font and plaid tree are so very “Mad Men” to me. Love the versatility of this stamp set!
- Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder adds a touch of texture without competing with the simplicity of the tree.

Glad it was helpful, Windy!
Indeed a great way to use up scraps, Rosalie. Thank you for your comment.
Love your card and it’s special with the cut off circle! A good way to use up your circles that are (were) mistakes! LOL Mistakes no more!
Awwwwwww, I love that that tree, MsMary I just orderd the bundle, and the plaids make it look so classy, love it all!!!!
I think you will love it, Frenchie. I sure appreciate your comments!
Mary, love this stylish and elegant card, love that little, sweet Christmas Tree, so cute all adorned with the button star. I love the stripped embossing folder, it goes well with any layout.
Now, I love surprises, I’m wracking my brain trying to guess, I will be patient and wait for tomorrow.
Thanks, Maria. You know the surprise by now–my studio tour is finally a video!

Thanks, Kelly. I wanted to keep the texture simple and the stripes was “just the thing!”
Gorgeous card. I will have to get this set. I can’t get enough of plaid and I love the style of the wording too.
I’m mad about plaid, too, Deborah!
Hi Mary, Now you have me waiting for tomorrow too!!!
F.Y.I. … I have no idea!

That’s what a surprise is all about, Nancy!
FABULOUS and very traditional holiday card. LOVE the use of the Stylish Stripes embossing folder. Goes especially well with the plaid tree. Nicely Done My Friend!
Thanks so much, Kadie. I love the little plaid tree!
